Player Valuation: £10m
The resurgent Blues take on Big Sam and the Ewoks of Ewood in what could be a pivotal moment in the season. AEK were dispatched with relative ease as the Blues finally started to show a real mixture of patient possession passing, constant driving runs of Baines and the occasional better quality long ball which Jo and Fellaini actually had a chance of winning.
Blackburn turned Wolves over 3-1 last time out, that result taking them to four points. Sam's tactics are hardly varied and this team relies heavily on the technical skills of Morten Gamst Pederson and the physicality of Roberts. Roberts is a player I have always liked. We have now moved beyond players of his quality hopefully but he makes things happen for his team and can't be underestimated. He will need close attention from a backline which will probably see Hibbo replace Gosling.
I can also see Heitinger coming in at defensive mid. the question is who makes way? Moyes said he prefers one or other out of Cahill and Fellaini so it looks likely to be one of those two. Controversially should we be thinking about Rodders getting a rest?
Whichever team Moyes goes with I'm still going for another confidence boost and a 2-0 win.
COYB!!
